This one is taken with my LX3 (sorry I don't own a m43 yet) during Cherry blossom season (not visible in this picture, but in many other pictures I have from my parents visit to Japan!!!):
- In the back you see the "Golden Temple" - one of most famous tourist attactions in Kyoto, but although it is a correct translation from Japanese, it actually ain't a temple and never was a temple either. It "simple" is a house close to a temple...
- I am the one in front with the sunglasses (in my hair), the other one with sunglasses is my Korean wife and the other two are our lovely daughters.

Thanks
- my kids get a lot of attention here in Asia
- to my opinion my wife is even more beautiful from the inside than from the outside, but no camera can capture that yet...

One remark, my Christian name is Jozef and Joep is my "preffered" name (not realy religious at this time), but in Asia they type my name typically like Jeop and in the US it often becomes Joe
- FYI you pronounce it like "you" (as in you and me) + "p" (from pee-pee on the toilet, but without the "ee" of course)
- Either way, no apologizes needed and I will "listen" to whatever name you guys and girls come up with

Well, it's best if you post the name the way you want to be addressed...
We are an international photography band of brothers and sisters...

I am still open for new nicknames
- But can indeed add my name in my signature (then I don't have to type it every time...), will do in ~5 min

Joep, that is a very nice portrait and I appreciate your posting it along with your descriptions - very thoughtful.

Yes, I wish I had chosen my first name rather than my acronym, but I've been around too long to change - that's why I put it in my signature line.

Oh yes, and your phonetic description of your name was great!

Hi Joep ! Great picture thanks. Nice you posted here. As us: we got three different eyes: heavenly blue, burning brown sweet, big grey eyes.
It fits together. Do you have a twitter account?

I took this picture with my Panny FZ50 in Homer Alaska last year right before my wife and I boarded a boat to go halibut fishing.
